THE ARTILLERY PARADE.

The newspaper criticisms upon the conduct
and appearance Of the Artillery battalion at
Colonel Scott's funeral were essentially unjust
The officers aud men looked WELL marched
well, and behaved we'll. Owing TO miscalcu.
latiou about the time required to march from
the Barracks, the troops were a few minutes late
The New York Times correspondent becomes
strangely mixed when he attempts to report
this affair. The funeral services were held Mt
the house, and not at a church, as he states,
and $50 p. NJ. was the hour, not o'clock, al
which time the escort was ordered to arrive.
As the services were short, only lasting ten or
fifteen minutes, painful pause must have en-
sued had the orders Of the War De-
partment been strictly carried out, and
this was further increased some seven minutes
by the late appearance Of the escort.
Again, as the procession moved up the right
side Of Connecticut avenue, there was no inter-
ference with the street cars The disposition
which the said correspondent makes at the en-.
trance TO the cemetery will I've looked for In vain
In Upton or Tidball, and does not obtain as an
established usage Of the Army, On the con.
trary. the regulations governing funeral ccre.
monies were complied with, the hearse entering
the cemetery and the Light Battery wheeling
out Of the column.
Whoever made go much ado about the affair
was ill-advised The officers and men of the
Third Artillery are as fine body as were evei
seen here, and they are properly indignant al
the unfair treatment which they have received

TRlCYCLING.

Tricyclng is a pleasure that is getting to be
more and more popular. aud justlyso. The ma-
chimes have been SO much improved, and can be
had in such variety of forms, that they are sure
to suit every taste. Moreover, they are now
kept in stock by various cycle shopsin such num-
hers that one of any kind can be hired for use.
Many people, in fact most people, never care
to spare the money necessary TO purchase such
a costly luxury, but no one need be deferred by
that from enjoying the use Of II. In fact, like a
horse aud carriage II is really cheaper to hire one
than TO own 1t. Then one does not have 10
store or care for it, II s always new aud in
order, and the cost is trhng for all the riding
cares TO do, unless he lie an enthusiast on the
subject. The various shapes Of double tricycles
are particularly delightful. With the fine pave
ments which render their use so easy one can
go all over the city, coasting down hill with the
speed of n toboggau, whirling along level
stretches and climbing hills with Just enough
exertion to give good exercise. II is an exhil-
Grating sensation, and we do not have so
many forms Of outdoor amusement at once
healthful and attractive that we can afford TO
